Unable to convert to PDF

Question

I'm using FM7.0 on Unix and I am trying to convert a file to PDF. The file has a lot of figures, tables and cross-references. It also has conditional text. When I try the Save As pdf it chugs along then I get an error. This is what is in the error log.
CID support library initialization completed.
%%[Warning: Empty job. No PDF file produced.]%%
Normalizer 5.0.5

%%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced.]%%
Can someone please help me?

Check your PDF settings in FrameMaker and look if the
"Create named destinations for all paragraphs" in the Links tab is checked. Perhaps you need to select the Format>Document>Optimize PDF Size before creating the PDF.
BTW, the error message you cited is incomplete - the PostScript error message (something like "Error: undefined ..., offending command; xxx") would be helpful to know.

PS: if necessary, I could tell you how to call the normalizer offline if you need to edit the PS file before distilling.
